Some people are so enamored with horror they need to experience it to feel truly alive. In "The Blackout Experiments," editor and documentary filmmaker Rich Fox follows several fear-obsessed individuals as they signed up to take part in an immersive, interactive experiment constructed around their personal phobias and nightmares.
Featuring "100 percent real" footage of these terrifying staged ordeals, the horror documentary delves into the human psyche and shows willing participants at their most vulnerable and emotionally fragile.
First screened in the Midnight section at this year's Sundance Film Festival, "The Blackout Experiments" is now slated to be released in theaters and VOD on July 8. Watch the film's new goosebumps-inducing trailer, above.
synopsis:
The most extreme immersive horror experience in America is called Blackout. Not for the faint of heart, it is a terrifying, psycho-sexual thrill-ride designed to play on our deepest psychological fears. Rich Fox's innovative horror documentary follows a group of friends whose experience with Blackout becomes deeply personal, developing into an obsession that hijacks their lives and blurs the line between reality and paranoid fantasy. Revealing an underbelly of private rituals and personal nightmares with shocking footage that is 100 percent real, THE BLACKOUT EXPERIMENTS is the story of our collective obsession with the darkness inside us.
